We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Ethernet switching",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Telecommunications company makes Ethernet choice from
Broadcom Corp, which we summarised at the time by saying "Broadcom and ZyXEL are providing VDSL2 IP DSLAM and customer premises equipment (CPE) products to Chunghwa Telecom for its next-generation VDSL2 access network".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Quad PHY is cooler choice for switching from
Marvell: "Quad gigabit Ethernet PHY chip cuts costs and power consumption in high-density switching applications".
In April 2007, we covered the news from Atheros Communications
concerning its AR8216
- take a look at Six-port switch provides wired link
which says: "The first Ethernet switch product from Atheros Communications is billed as the industry's lowest-cost six-port 10/100 Fast Ethernet switch".
Take a look also at the news release from Solarflare, Chips enable Ethernet over copper at 10Gbit/s,
as well as 3GSM demos shows WiMAX basestation on MicroTCA from Emerson Network Power Embedded Computing,
and PLL helps real-time services over packet networks from Zarlink Semiconductor.
